The train the runaway
Waiting for the right of way
Spin the wheels, light the candles.
Waiting for the night you'll stay
Next to me in Winnipeg
Mind a spinning wheel of prayers.
Tell my feet, my brain, my ribs n my lungs, my fingers
Not to stray
Please darling stay.
Bright flags and a breath of air
An offering, my heart I lay
Bright flags catch the breath of her
Standing face to the sun.
